More of "economy plus" compared to other some others PE product which is more towards "business minus".
Today's better PE's are like business class was 1 or 2 decades ago
Comparing hard products:

BA 773 (Four Class Configuration)
World Traveler Plus 38" Pitch 18.5" Wide Recliner Seat

DL A350
Premium Select 38" Pitch 18.5" Wide Recliner Seat

Yes, the DL seat is newer and has a better IFE, but the space/size of the seats is very similar.

For comparison, JAL, Premium Economy on the 772 40" Pitch, 18.8" Wide Recliner Seat, so more space. (One World)
And Air France, Premium Economy on the 772 38" Pitch, 19" Wide Recliner Seat.

These comparisons don't take into account the soft product.

Yes. Though this is (unfortunately) an outlier. Most PE seats are 18.5-19.5 inches.

FWIW, the measurables differences between BA and JL don’t really translate into a terribly noticeable difference in comfort in my view. The AF product is, to my mind, the big outlier - not necessarily better, just so different.
